Subscriptions management change
Hi all,
A quick note to inform you of a change in how I manage subscriptions here at weeblr.com.
How was it working?
In July 2023, I introduced a big change in my subscription plans, as I needed to increase prices but did not want to simply increase prices. So I started offering each subscription in two versions:
- regular subscriptions are valid for up to 3 sites
- pro subscriptions are valid for an unlimited number of sites
The idea was that users with many websites are agencies, and it would be easier for them to pay a bit more, while prices would stay the same for individuals and smaller businesses, who most often are managing just their own website.
The thing is: I did not actively enforce these limits. I trusted my users, most of them very long-time users, to progressively upgrade their subscription at the next renewal, and get a pro version based on how many sites they were using our extensions on.
After nearly two and a half years, I unfortunately came to the conclusion that my expectation was not realistic. While a significant number of users indeed upgraded, a large fraction use extensions on 30, 50 or 100 websites with just a regular subscription.
What's changing?
Effective 1 January 2026, I will enable website count controls on subscriptions. This means:
- if you use your subscription update/access key on 3 or fewer sites, there's no change
- if you have more than 3 sites and a PRO subscription, no change either
- if you have more than 3 sites and a regular subscription, one-click updates will stop working after the first 3 sites
In addition to updates, the following features are linked to your subscriptions and are therefore affected as well:
- 4SEO Google Search Console connection and data extraction
- 4Analytics AI analysis
These features will only work on the number of sites associated with your subscription.
Cheers,
Yannick
